Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
InstrumentalA tightly formed instrumental jazz-rock set, with assured ensemble work and a coherent five-track shape, but its writing stays within familiar fusion territory.
What we noticed
- The five-track sequence places the title cut second, followed by “Splat”; the final two tracks close the record without an appended bonus-track tail.
- Electric keyboards and a rhythm-section groove sit beneath the horn-led lines, keeping the writing in a jazz-rock ensemble format rather than a small-combo acoustic sound.
- The pieces are instrumental, so their development comes through ensemble interplay and instrumental lines rather than vocal verses or choruses.

Known within its scene. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
